Compte's Count is Zero

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Andre Vieira Andrade opened from under the gun, Mathieu Papineau three-bet from one seat over and Sebastien Compte then four-bet shoved for 50,000 out of the big blind with {A-}{Q-}. Andrade folded and later claimed he had ace-queen as well whereas Papineau snapped with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}.

There was no surprise on the board and Compte's stack was reduced to zero.

From Hero to Zero

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Mouad Benharmach had just doubled up, now he is gone and the chips went straight back to Zakaria! "He has been given the chips away, said he had something to do still," Anas Tadini joked.

Tadini then defended his big blind against a raise to 5,000 by Anthony Rodrigues and checked the flop {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. On the {5-Clubs} turn, Tadini check-called a small continuation bet and checked again the {2-Hearts} river. Rodrigues checked behind and Tadini announced a straight before showing {A-Clubs}{3-Clubs} to win the pot.

Benharmach Doubles

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Zakaria had previously doubled up his short stack, but the Spaniard then lost most of it back to Mouad Benharmach. Anas Tadini said "if you fold, I call his shove" to the table neighbor and Zakaria's {A-Spades}{9-Spades} failed to get there against Benharmach's {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Benharmach doubled for 63,400.

Down to 50 Players

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Florian Vidal and Yoan Argence failed to run up their stacks and can now either plan the rest of the day in the sun, at the pool or in the other Side Events at the Casino de Marrakech.

Argence first lost chips against Thierry Gogniat and then had his aces cracked by an opponent with queens, who made a straight.

Es Safi and Lob Eliminated

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Abdelmajid Es Safi and Joachim Lob followed next to the rail. The latter three-bet shoved out of the big blind and initial raiser Michael van der Ghinst looked him up with the dominating hand.

Lob: {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
van der Ghinst: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop improved the short stack, however the {A-Hearts} turn restored the preflop order. It was the blank {9-Spades} river that sent Lob to the rail as well.

Da Silva de Sousa First Casualty

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

Rui Miguel da Silva de Sousa started as one of the shortest stacks and got his remaining chips in with {K-}{10-} against the {A-}{10-} of Israel Amoyal. The Portuguese failed to improve and was sent to the rail first on Day 2.

Vadella Wins a Big Flip

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

A raising war broke out between Marcel Vadella and Tsunamy with the former squeezing to 19,000 and then five-bet shoving once Vadella had clicked back. Vadella called and it was a big flip for more than 115,000 chips.

Vadella: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Tsunamy: [QhQs[

The board ran out {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Vadella doubled up.
